Attachment system flawed?

[jaclaz]

There are a few recent posts about people having an error with files posted as attachments.

 

Besides the specific files reported as MIA, I tested (through my control panel) the existence/accessibility of files/attachments I posted, and they seem "gone".

With a difference, uploaded as attachment images are still viewable/accessible, .zip files are not.

 

Usual IPB update crazyness?

Unwanted change in permissions/whatever?

*Something else*?

I confirm all .7z, .zip and .pdf attachments suddenly became unavailable. Something is definitely amiss here!

There are some .pdf and .7z, all at the same place, at the bottom of this post, too.

Restored attachments database and uploads folder from backup. Attachments added in the last 7 days will not work.

I hope there are not many. Good idea to tell OP to add missing att. again in the post.

Example:

As far as I can see some profile photos are missing, too

Something must still be "defective", the last one here:

http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?app=forums&module=forums&section=attach&tid=152688

doesn't work still (while the other ones are seemingly OK), see also:

Maybe the "cut-off date" is like August (and not a week or so)?
